Miry had relapsed into uncon- thought he was on the point of So he meant to ignore, even in
private, all that had passed between
us at Genoa and on that eventfttl
train -journey, and intended, in his
assumed character, to treat me as a
lunatic to be humored and cajoled.
All that X could nialte of it was
that he must have been bribed by
Zavertal and Vizard to side with
them, and swear that all I might
say of my adventures in his com-
pany was the creation Of a deluded
brain. Too sick at heart and weary
to search for further meanings, this,
the only explanation of bis conduct
that presented itself, upset me alto-
gether.
"If that is the way you are goleg
to talk, for God's sake clear out be-
fore I do you an injury," I cried,
"I thought you were a true man

In real or affected terror he rushed
from the cabin-, leaving me in a
whirl of mingled rage and -despair.
As I grew somewhat calmer my
mend turned to Aline, and to trying
to devise some scheme, by buying
over nee jailers or otherwise, of
communicating with her. The' pas-
sengers, I knew by the sounds on
deck outside, were, up and about by
this time; and it was Maddening to
think that ehikinight be passing and
re -passing within a few feet of nie,
and yet be ignorant that I was 'so
near. It was quite likely that steps
had been taken to prevent the gen-
eral body of passengers from hearing
that I was on board..
I was still debating how best to
eneet my purpose, when the sound
of a collocodeeproceeding at the sur-
gery door, next to mine, attracted
my attention. ,
First a voice, which. 1 recognized
as that of the chief stewardess, said,
"7s the doctor in ?"
"What is it ?" came the reply, in
Zavertal's tones. .
"I came to tell you, sir, that one
6f the ladies has been taken ill,"
said the woman. "It' is Miss Gila],

Most people suffer more or less
,from 'Stennach weakness, indigestion

ibut many do not realiee that this

vitality, poorness of the blood, and
exhausted nerves.
•The digestive organs, like the

Mrs, M. A. Sharp. 346 Dublin

"For some years I was troubled

X usually plan to have a patch of

Jambs and ewes can run on this in
early March, and sometimes even in
February. This results in a. heavy
:flow of milk and very rapid growth.
By the middle of May or the last of
June tee lambs will weigh from 70
to 80 pounds, at which time they
are ready for mierket.
SPECIAL WEED KILLERS.
Weeds growing near walks can be
easily killed by using kerosene or a
'solution of sulphate of copper, or
weak sulphurie acid, but where poul-
try or animals are liable to eat the
grass, these poisons would be dan-
gerous; In that case, boiling water
could be used very suecessfully. On
the -whole, it appears that sul,phate
of copper in water is the chea.pest
weed killer in cases where the pests
cannot be conveniently reached with
a hoe. It is excellent to clean out
grass growing close to walls, fences
and house foundations, or to kill
weeds which grow between the
boards of a wooden walk, where
lawns aro invaded by plaintain or
brooks choked with water weeds, a
thorough. sprinkling with the copper
sulphate is the most convenient
reinedy.
THE FOWL OF TETE FUTURE
must be the fowl that will furnish
the best meat and the most eggs.
The "fancy" is all rightso fax as it
tends to keep a breed up to feather,'
as a breed. But when fowl are rats-
,
ed exclusively for the show room
they are robbed of uthity and are
boencle to degenerate in vigor . and
usefulness. Vine feathers, Walkout
other good qualities, are useless,
praotically. We want more • good
fowl, and doss fine feathers and high
stores. And the trend of opinion is
that way. More eggs, more mar-
ket poultry, and lese purely fancy
birds.
DO UNTO OTBIERS.
A good many people think that
owning land, they have a right to
do whatever they like with it. This
Is true only , in a measure. They
owe something to society and to
their aeighbors. Every man must
